The Tax Man Cometh...

But before he does, let me show you
some "stuff" we have made for our
upcoming shows.

I made my own paper for this...
thank you Lori for the advice!
The frame came from Donna...
so whatcha think?


For the grater (the tin Donna gave me)
we aged our wood...
Trial and many errors, we finally came up with
"The Recipe" and just like the Baldwin Sisters...
this too shall go to the grave with us so to speak.
Lee did this one.


Lee made this make-do rocker using a very old
painted rocker. Have had this quilt like forever, love
the colors and pattern.


And finally...
a round chalk board.
The wood is from an antique barrel.
I like different things and I think that this fits
"different"


So...now you know what we have been up to.
Lee had Date Night Friday Night...alone.
Poor thing...his date just did not want to go.
Well, it gave him a chance to "bond" with the boys.
Too cold for me, I stayed snuggled up on the sofa with my
Game Boy!!

O.K. friends...the tax man cometh is the title of this post...
and if I do not get my butt of this computer
we will have NOTHING ready for him!!

Have a  great day and I will talk to you all later.
Thanks for your visit today!!

Robin

    FANTASTIC GOODIES! We're going to attempt a make-do chair soon too. Do I need to be afraid of doing it?????? The old grater could use a home right in my kitchen! This still will all fly out of your door. Tax man??? Oh no. I've got to get stuff ready too. Have a great day, Dawn

    Ok....so I lied. I WANT that silhouette and that grater. (And yeah - I'd love the chalkboard and chair too, but would have to plan more space-wise.) DO you sell your stuff on line ever??? Robin
